Accelerated Learning Solutions
We are a leading provider of non-traditional programming for students aged 16-21 who are at-risk of dropping out of high school, who have already dropped out or who just do not fit the traditional high school experience. Serving students in some of the largest school districts in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina, ALS Education LLC manages 21 schools (17 in Florida, 3 In North Carolina, and 1 in Georgia). We believe that education cannot be “one size fits all” and many students just need something different than a traditional high school setting offers. Our schools are small, teacher-led, technology-enhanced learning environments that offer flexible scheduling, a self-paced mastery-based instructional model, intensive on-site wraparound social services, and individualized career and college planning support. Our schools provide students the opportunity to get back on track in their learning by building basic skills and meeting requirements for graduation. Looking beyond graduation, we provide extensive career and college readiness training to prepare students with the skills and planning for life after high school. Our schools are tuition-free public charter schools offering an accredited high school diploma (not a GED).
